Electronics providing monitoring capability

1. A method of autonomously improving signal reliability of a cellularly-connected host device, comprising: monitoring, by an embedded modem coupled with the host device, a signal effectiveness of a cellular module for a signal effectiveness event; detecting, by the embedded modem, the signal effectiveness event based on the monitored signal effectiveness reaching at least one event threshold; providing data regarding the signal effectiveness event to a remote server; receiving, by the remote server, the data regarding the signal effectiveness event; upon the detection of the signal effectiveness event, performing, by the embedded modem, each of the following steps: issuing a command to the cellular module to re-establish connection with a first carrier; and restarting the cellular module; aggregating, by the remote server, the data regarding the signal effectiveness event with previously received data regarding prior signal effectiveness events; adjusting, by the remote server, the at least one event threshold based on the aggregated data; transmitting, by the remote server, the adjusted at least one event threshold to the embedded modem; and updating, by the embedded modem, the at least one event threshold based on the received adjusted at least one event threshold; wherein the embedded modem provides cellular communications capabilities to the host device.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising, upon the detection of the signal effectiveness event, causing the host device to power cycle the cellular module.

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising, upon the detection of the signal effectiveness event, causing a power cycling of the host device.

4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising, upon the detection of the signal effectiveness event, reconnecting the cellular module to switch to a second carrier different from the first carrier.

5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising, following the step of restarting the cellular module: causing the host device to power cycle the cellular module; causing the power cycling of the host device; and reconnecting the cellular module to switch to a second carrier different from the first carrier.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the signal effectiveness comprises at least one of a viability of network connection, a signal strength, a signal quality, or a signal delay.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein providing the data regarding the signal effectiveness event to the remote server further comprises providing at least one of (1) a cellular module identifier, (2) a SIM card identifier, (3) a host device identifier, or (4) an EMA modem identifier.

8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the cellular module identifier comprises at least one of an IMEI number or an IMSI number.

9. The method of claim 7 , wherein the SIM card identifier is an ICCID.

10. The method of claim 1 , further comprising: sending, by the embedded modem, host device data over a first channel; characterizing, by the embedded modem, the signal effectiveness event as the data regarding the signal effectiveness event; and sending the data regarding the signal effectiveness event over a second channel, different from the first channel.

11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the first channel and second channel are operated simultaneously and wherein operating the second channel does not interfere with the operation of the first channel.

12. The method of claim 10 , further comprising changing the transmission of the host device data from sending over the first channel to sending over the second channel.

13. The method of claim 10 , further comprising encrypting the host device data, and subsequently sending the encrypted host device data over the second channel.

14. The method of claim 10 , wherein the signal effectiveness data is encrypted prior to sending, and wherein sending encrypted signal effectiveness event data to the remote server over the second channel further comprises authenticating the host device with the remote server.

15. The method of claim 10 , further comprising encrypting at least one of the signal effectiveness event data or the host device data, wherein encrypting and providing at least one of the encrypted signal effectiveness event data or the encrypted host data is completed by a third party service.

16. The method of claim 10 , wherein the host device data is sent to an operator server.

17. The method of claim 1 , further comprising providing a modem that includes the cellular module of claim 1 and a processor, and pre-certifying the modem as the embedded modem.

18. A system comprising: a modem comprising a cellular module and a processor configured to perform the logical functions of: monitoring signal effectiveness of the cellular module for a signal effectiveness event; providing the signal effectiveness event to a remote server; upon detection of the signal effectiveness event perform each the following steps: issuing a command to the cellular module to re-establish connection with a first carrier; and restarting the cellular module; and the remote server configured to perform the logical functions of: aggregating the data regarding the signal effectiveness event with previously received data regarding prior signal effectiveness events; adjusting at least one event threshold based on the aggregated data; and transmitting the adjusted at least one event threshold to the modem; and the modem further configured to perform the logical function of updating the at least one event threshold based on the received adjusted at least one event threshold.
